The matter of treason exploded in the entire capital like a bomb, and the aftermath went up to the court and down to the ordinary people, and there was no one who did not talk about it, and the entire court had already started to work on this matter, with the King of Han in hand, It is nothing to fear that the forces in Qingzhou will collapse immediately, and even the "nails" in the capital were wiped out in a few days by means of thunder. The court was already arguing over this matter, and Xue Zhan, who was the ignition line, leisurely returned to Beijing and hid in Dingyuanhou's mansion under the pretext of recovering from his injuries.

"I really admire you."

Xu Changlin shook his head and came to the door. Xue Zhan, who was eating a sumptuous lunch, raised his eyebrows: "There are too many people who admire me."

Lifting up his robe and sitting beside him, Xu Changlin asked angrily, "Are you not worried?"

"Yes," Xue Zhan propped his chin, looked at the tonic soup next to the food with a look of unrequited love: "I'm just worried about how long this tonic soup will last? Can I not drink it?"

Xu Changlin was speechless: "This is the wish of my mother-in-law."

"But I really ate to the point of throwing up!"

That being said, after eating lunch, he still downed the can of soup in one gulp, and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"Today, Duke Zhong went to court, and voted for 'severe punishment' with a clear-cut banner!"

Although Zhu Qilin went to court on time every time, he seldom expressed his opinion. From the first emperor to the present, the emperor would not say anything unless he asked. Under the influence of Zhu Qilin, the irresistible trend of the court has the intention to decide the winner, so it can be seen that Zhu Qilin's authority as a first-rank Duke has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

My male voters were so angry that they committed suicide privately, how could they not vote "severely punished" with a clear-cut banner?Xue Zhan thought for a while: "Where's the emperor?"

Xu Changlin shook his head: "The whole time he kept his eyebrows down."

But also, with Zhu Gaochi's current control over the court, if he has an idea, he won't let the matter go to the present.

"The emperor doesn't express his opinion, and the civil and military officials don't dare to vote too clearly, but the sweeping of Hanwang's rebellious forces in Qingzhou has come to an end. How the Hanwangfu executes this is related to the next appointment in Qingzhou, and a decision needs to be made early."

Xue Zhan looked at him: "What does this concern me? I'm just a general, and I don't control the appointment of officials. Besides, I'm still a wounded person. No matter how much I worry about it, it's not my turn to worry about it."

"It's not your turn to worry about it, but you brought the King of Han back, and he was tortured first, so the emperor will ask you for questions."

"..." Xue Zhan suddenly beeped like a dog.

Xu Changlin half gloated and half sadly said: "I think it's only a few days away, you have to be mentally prepared."

Dumbfounded by this heavyweight bomb, Xue Zhan wasted time with a look of lovelessness. When Zhu Qilin came to visit, he tilted his head and asked in a daze: "Grandpa, give me a smile~"

Zhu Qilin paused.

Xue Kun, who was completely covered by Zhu Qilin's figure, was dumbfounded, and Bai Ya, who had just stepped through the door, staggered, holding onto the door panel to stand still, and for a moment didn't know whether to be angry at his son for speaking out or to be ashamed of his son's molestation.

Xue Kun hurriedly turned around to support Bai Ya: "Mom, are you alright?"

Xue Zhan also got upright and coughed dryly: "Why are you here, mother?" He said and stared at Zhu Qilin, why are you so tall when you are fine?The people who followed behind didn't say a word, and now they are ashamed and humiliated!

Zhu Qilin, who received Xue Zhan's stare, had no choice but to turn around and raise his hand: "Mrs. Xue."

Bai Ya leaned back: "Master Guo." She tried her best to put away the complicated look on her face, and said, "If you don't mind, Mr. Guo, please stay and have a light meal."

A while ago, the strange attitudes of Bai Ya and Xue Weizhi made Zhu Qilin feel something, so every day he stared at Xue Zhan, changed his wound medicine and asked if the situation was the same. detain a guest?

Xue Zhan's eyes lit up, and he moved to Bai Ya's side and pretended to say, "Mother, do you think the Duke is as busy as I am? He is very busy!"

"If you're busy with dinner, don't you want to eat?" After staring at her son, Bai Ya nodded and smiled at Zhu Qilin, and helped Xue Kun to make peace by herself.

Watching people leave, Xue Zhan took a happy photo of Zhu Qilin's arm, and he still didn't forget to joke when he pulled the painful canthus and cracked his mouth: "The ugly daughter-in-law is finally recognized by the mother-in-law, are you happy?"

Zhu Qilin pretended not to hear, pushed the person back to the chair and carefully opened the clothes to see that the wound was not broken, so he asked in his heart, "What happened before?"

The two had a tacit understanding and knew what he was talking about without asking. Xue Zhan sighed: "It's hard, you said that I was shot while lying down?" He leaned on the male ticket's shoulder and sighed again: " You said that this has to be resolved, and there is still a need to procrastinate?"

Why did he use his injury as an excuse to avoid seeing people?It is because Hanwang is sensitive about this matter, brothers and mother compatriots, it is enough to receive the credit for arresting people, and it is too much to intervene in how to execute them.

Zhu Qilin raised his arm and hugged his armpit to relieve the burden of the wound, and frowned, Xue Zhan played with the fingers on his waist, and said in a muffled voice: "Xu Changlin came here to remind me, saying that the emperor may come to me to talk about life in the past two days. I'm mentally prepared."

Holding his arms tightly around his armpit, Zhu Qilin looked at him: "Hanwang's lineage has deep roots, and it is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net, and it will be another trouble if they are used by those who are interested."

Considering the overall situation and the stability of the country, King Han must die!

"...you know this matter, I know it, most people in the court know it, the emperor should know it better, so why are you still hesitating?"

Zhu Qilin pondered, lowered his head and said, "Brotherhood?" He is an only son, and his relatives are weak. This kind of kinship with one mother is really incomprehensible.

Xue Zhan shook his head: "Not necessarily." Finding faults from a young age and finding a big brother, whoever has such a bad brother would want to strangle him to death!Not to mention the emperor's house.

Within two days, in response to Xu Changlin's reminder, Zhu Gaochi announced him to enter the palace, and the result also responded to the two people's guesses, and there were indeed concerns.

A secret decree, written by Zhu Di himself, in four large characters.

Save him.

Who this 'he' is is self-evident.

If there were only two people in the big Xuanzheng Hall, Xue Zhan respectfully handed back the secret decree, Zhu Gaochi took it and stuffed it back into his sleeve, and took a sip of tea with an inexplicable expression.

Xue Zhan also had a headache, why did Zhu Di do such stupid things when he was about to come?It's fine for Zhu Gaoxu's private soldiers, but also the secret decree of 'keeping him alive'?According to the fact that the other party is meticulous, this secret decree is probably known to others, and nine out of ten are people who are senior and important in the court. Not too many, two to three are enough to make Zhu Gaochi worry.

Could it be that I haven't made up my mind after dragging on for so long, but why I want to kill but can't!

Thinking of this, Xue Zhan feels very sorry for Zhu Gaochi. He has a younger brother who has cheated his elder brother professionally, and a father who has cheated his son for a hundred years. Tsk, it is hard for him to stay strong even before he got sick.

"What does the emperor mean?"

Zhu Gaochi put down the teacup: "Tell me your opinion."

This made Xue Zhan difficult.

"Speak frankly, I forgive you for your innocence."

With Zhu Gaochi's words at the bottom, Xue Zhan didn't beat around the bush at all, and said straight: "Your Majesty, the 'King of Han' must die, but 'Zhu Gaoxu' can live."

The rule is that the dead are alive, and the secret decree only said 'keep his life' but did not say that 'Hanwang Zhu Gaoxu' was to be saved' No, 'Hanwang' is dead to destroy those evil intentions, 'Zhu Gaoxu' is alive Wouldn't Zhu Di have the best of both worlds with his love for his son?

Thinking about it for one night, Zhu Gaochi accepted Xue Zhan's method, and gradually leaned towards the "severe punishment" side in the court. The Jingkou vegetable market was full of blood, and the piles of mass graves outside the city could not be piled up. In the imperial mausoleum, one more person was placed under house arrest for life. A 'common man' who is not seen for life.

At this point, the country's sensational treason case has also been settled. Zhu Gaochi's tough tactics in this matter made the court unfocused for a while, and the government and orders reached another peak. Strong and full of vitality, the border neighbors shrunk down one by one to be little daughters-in-law, so short of begging grandpa to worship grandma that they dare not have the slightest disagreement.

Internal security, political clarity; external stability, border tranquility.

The emperor Zhu Gaochi's bad luck seems to have been used up in the first half of his life, but there are still many things to worry about, such as Xue Zhan and Zhu Qilin.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Xue Zhan shouted with no guilt at all.

Zhu Gaochi stared at him with worrying chest tightness and dry mouth: "Kneel down!"

Xue Zhan blinked his eyes, and put down the raised half of his leg again.

Zhu Gaochi waved his hand, and his confidant eunuch immediately drove out the rest of the eunuchs and maids, and he himself also went out and closed the door.

"Do you know what the latest rumors outside the palace are?"

"Go back to the emperor, I don't know." Xue Zhan pretended to be stupid.

"Hmph, I don't know? You don't know?" Zhu Gaochi snorted angrily, and cursed: "There are rumors outside that Duke Zhong didn't get married because I oppressed him, saying that he has great achievements, that he is too popular, and that I issued a secret decree not to allow him to get married! Said that I would not allow the Zhongguo Duke's mansion to have an heir!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Gaochi gasped in anger: "Listen, listen, I will be blamed for the good deeds you have done! Do I owe you or what? If you have the ability to break your sleeves, you can announce it to the world!"

"The emperor's minister will announce to the world that the minister and Duke Zhong are in love with each other and have the same mind, but they will not marry each other in this life!"

As he was about to get up, Zhu Gaochi slammed the table angrily, looking eager to announce to the world, "How dare you! Kneel down!"

"Oh." Xue Zhan came back obediently and knelt down.

Zhu Gaochi was so angry that his chest hurt, but he got used to the pain, took a sip of tea to suppress his anger, and asked with an expression that he didn't want to care about your bad thoughts: "The ten-year agreement is coming soon, what do you want? Is it true that Dingyuan Hou's title will be returned?"

"I said I would pay it back at the beginning, so I will definitely pay it back."

"Have you thought about it?"

Xue Zhan nodded: "It's hard to follow a gentleman's words!"

"..." Zhu Gaochi looked at him.

Xue Zhan looked back: "???"

"From now on, you don't need to use the phrase 'a gentleman's words are hard to follow'. My chest feels tight when I hear it."

Xue Zhan: "..." Don't think I dare not hit you because you are the emperor!I got up and even I was afraid of myself.

When the ten-year appointment came, Xue Zhan, amidst the speculations of the crowd, went directly to Zhezi to return to the position of heir, and asked Xue Chengyi, who was already fifteen, to be crowned heir. Unexpectedly, the emperor approved it immediately after seeing Zhezi.

Xue Zhan, who has been arrogant for ten years, publicized for ten years, and famous for ten years, has fallen out of favor?

Ha ha.

If someone really said that, I am afraid that many people would be embarrassed.

It's no one's turn to fall out of favor. His younger brother and sister are the county lords of Funing County in the Zhenbeihou Mansion, and his younger brother is also making his mark in the official career. Calling brothers and brothers, and being inseparable from Zhong Guogong, this amount is not comparable to that of ordinary Zong clan!Will he fall out of favor?Tell a joke.

Sure enough, within half a month, an imperial decree was issued directly to Dingyuanhou's Mansion.

Xue Zhan was granted the title of Hu Guobo, and he was not given a high rank among earls, but sensible people can understand the meaning of the two titles of 'Guo Guo'.

Uncle Huguo, Uncle Huguo, how can there be Huguohou, Huguogong, who is not pleasing to the ear?
